Great pics. I went through Wimberly this March, pretty area, not to mention peaceful, rural and rolling terrain.Desert Dwellerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00952727692048782529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4324576038877179022.post-53112184296371532592011-06-17T10:34:43.773-05:002011-06-17T10:34:43.773-05:00RBell...This is the first time I&#39;ve tried the ...RBell...This is the first time I&#39;ve tried the Daniella. We&#39;ll see what happens this winter. Maybe we&#39;ll luck out, and have a mild winter, after this awful summer.<br /><br />David...I would think you could grow most anything we grow here, plus more. Thanks for the kind words. And, yes..this drought is awful.<br /><br />Pam...the deer don&#39;t seem to bother the Aztec grass, as much as the old fashion green liriope. I haven&#39;t tried it outside the fence in a while. But, right now wouldn&#39;t be a fair time to test it.<br />We do have a LOT of hungry deer.<br /><br />Wicked...I&#39;d love the secret to Persian Shield. My secret for New Guineas is...well..I don&#39;t really have any secret. They just seem to do well here. They get thirsty, but not as much as the other types do. On the other hand, they don&#39;t seem to bloom as much. But, the foliage is nice.<br /><br />Thanks all for dropping by.Linda/patchworkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12639872362919575736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4324576038877179022.post-24826435206240777172011-06-17T10:17:58.605-05:002011-06-17T10:17:58.605-05:00Ok - I&#39;ll give you the secret to Persian Sheil...Ok - I&#39;ll give you the secret to Persian Sheild if you tell me how to grow New Guineas.

But your garden lo...Oh, the drought is so dreadful. But your garden looks like it&#39;s hanging on well! I keep seeing the dianella and may finally have to try it next spring. Is it particularly thirsty, Linda? <br /><br />Like you, I appreciate liriope and use it in my garden and in many designs. But I did not know that deer eat it. In my neighborhood they leave it alone. Your deer are obviously hungrier/more numerous/all of the above.Pam/Digginghttp://www.penick.net/diggingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4324576038877179022.post-13556345653495124102011-06-16T16:05:30.987-05:002011-06-16T16:05:30.987-05:00Wow!

I&#39;ve tried a lot of them, but there are some new ones I think would do well over here in Houston.<br />I really like your garden blog!<br />Isn&#39;t this drought terrible?<br />Hope we all get rain soon.<br />David/ Tropical Texana/ HoustonDavidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12495040805660192347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4324576038877179022.post-31608522539420025002011-06-16T14:29:45.817-05:002011-06-16T14:29:45.817-05:00Despite the heat/drought, there&#39;s lots of nice...Despite the heat/drought, there&#39;s lots of nice foliage in your garden. Your Daniella looks especially nice - mine keeps getting hammered to the ground with our recent hard winters and doesn&#39;t bounce back very quickly. It&#39;s all looking good.RBellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02144562147128230710noreply@blogger.com
